Nonprofit Excelerator Training Series- Proposal Writing and Budgeting: Part 2, Preparing Proposal Budgets that Make Sense

Proposal Writing & Budgeting (2-part series)

Grants are one of the primary sources of funding for nonprofits yet many grantmakers say a significant amount of the grant proposals they receive do not provide them with the information they need in a clear and concise manner. Budgets are also one of the first things funders look at when reviewing proposals, yet some don’t reflect the proposed scope of work.

In this interactive, two-part series, you will learn the best practices and common mistakes in writing compelling proposals and discover what funders are really looking for in grant proposals and budgets. You will have an opportunity to draft essential parts of a proposal and receive feedback from class participants during the proposal workshop.

Part 2 – Preparing Proposal Budgets that Make Sense

Tuesday, June 4^th

This workshop will cover:

• Building a comprehensive project budget that accurately reflects your proposal
• Determining the right amount to ask for in your funding request
• Tracking your budget once the grant has been received
